On the Value of Dreams
As I descend the depths of pain and dying
And slowly sink into my last defeat
The outside world moves far away from me
Afraid of death, it hurries to retreat.
I hide inside a million story worlds
Where flowers bloom and no one ever dies
Those characters that seem so close to me
Though only pen and paper, only lies.
They stay with me through all my dark despair
When silence is my only other friend
Though friends and family fade, I still have peace
My dreams will be with me until the end.
